How To Make A First Date A Success

July 21, 2008

A first date can be so special, so why do guys always equate not scoring with a girl on the first date to losing a video game?  First dates are fragile affairs when two perfect strangers get together to find out whether they are compatible or not.  When women are on first dates, they analyze every little thing their date does.  The pressure is usually on the men, so the way they handle this high stress situation is an indication of their characters.  Women like to observe and note every fidget, whether their date sweats, whether he is calm, cool and collected.

So how do you stop yourself from ruining a first date?  Quite simple, the best first date tip is make your date feel comfortable.  As long as women are comfortable, they can relax and feel easy while conversing with you.  Feeling relaxed helps ease the situation, in case you accidentally say something insulting, or step on her foot, even forget to hold the door open for her.  As long as your date is easy and comfortable with you, she will be more inclined to forgive most mishaps.

Where first dates are concerned, make it a point to be on time.  Don’t keep your date waiting for you to arrive.  Punctuality is important on first dates as it sends the message that you are keen to see her and will set the tone for your success of a first date.

Be generous with your compliments but don’t over do it or ring false with your compliments.  To sound genuine, compliment her only what you like about her, whether it is her dress, her hairstyle, how she carries her self, or the fact that she keeps her makeup minimal.

Be a good listener, pay attention to what your date is saying, so that you can ask the right questions.  Give her your undivided attention and don’t interrupt when she is talking.  Compliment her sense of humour when she says something funny.

Don’t be arrogant and please don’t show-off.  Your date will like you all the more for being modest, courteous and chivalrous.  No one likes braggarts who like to tom-tom their wealth.

On a first date, it is wise not to get too personal.  Rather keep a distance and also keep your hands to yourself.  If, you wish to hold her hand, get her permission first.  Act fresh and that will ruin your chances of seeing her again.

Keep your eyes on your date; don’t turn to look at every pretty face that passes you by.  Roving eyes will never get you past the first date.

Dating is not an easy game, one has to be confident and while you let her know how lucky you are to be out on a date with her, don’t let her intimidate you.
Dropping your date back is mandatory for a first day.  The old fashioned system of picking up and dropping a date is still romantic and chivalrous.

When you have dropped her back, send a message and let her know what a lovely time you had when out with her.

Style Tips for Men Who Don’t Want To Ruin A First Date
Wear clothes that not only look good on you, but you are also comfortable in.  Forget tight collars, wear deodorant to prevent underarm patches that are a dead give-away that you are nervous.  Slip on sandals only if it too warm for anything else and you have had a pedicure only recently.  Who wouldn’t be put off with over-grown, yellow toenails?

Style Tips for Women On A First Date
Remember, less is more and you’ll do fine!  This is one night that you want to look your alluring best, not cheap and tacky.  This is not the night for red talons and bright red lips, instead go subtle and natural with your make-up, as most men don’t like being seen out with over-done Painted Dolls.  Keep your accessories like jewellery very discreet.

Have fun on your first date, make her laugh, make him laugh and you are off to a splendid start!
